To stop Ruby's garbage collector from freeing Ruby `VALUE`s while we're
in the middle of using them in libretro builds, we need to make sure all
the `VALUE`s we use are on the sandbox's stack.
Also, to allow Ruby to recognize `VALUE`s on the sandbox's stack on
big-endian targets, I've changed the serialization of `VALUE`s. Before,
any `VALUE`s returned by a sandbox function were always converted to the
target's endian, and any `VALUE`s passed to sandbox functions as
argument were then converted back to WebAssembly's endianness,
little-endian. Now, `VALUE`s are always little-endian; they are no
longer converted to the target's endianness. That should be fine since
`VALUE`s are supposed to be opaque values.
I've decided to stop gambling with ways to make `-e` not crash Ruby on
startup in libretro builds (see commit
1473416a5a for context). Making Ruby load
a dummy script seems to work better.
Guys, I think I'm going insane. Every time I build the libretro Ruby
sandbox with a different version of Ruby, or even when I build Ruby at a
different path on my computer, there's some chance that the builds
produced with that version of Ruby and/or that path on my computer
result in Ruby crashing on startup in libretro builds. I've been
tweaking these command-line arguments that are passed to Ruby for a
while now, and I *think* these are the correct ones that will stop Ruby
from crashing.
